can a brother get a lil help here?
I've never experimented with lesser times, but chacruna *is* active boiled at the regular 3x3. My personal reasoning was always that, well, I'm at the stove and Caapi is cooking anyway...
I have HEARD that admixture needs as little as 3 x 30 minute boils, and freeze-thawing the leaves can hasten the process, BUT, I have never tried any of this myself. (Maybe someone else can chime in?)

you only need to do about a 30 minute boil
you can do two if you really want
good luck stay safe and happy dreams

If I was going to do a short boil on chacruna I'd grind it thoroughly first. I learned this quite recently
